Bob, I take it you mean LABELFORMAT (not FORMATOPTION)? From http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapfile/grid:
LABELFORMAT [DD|DDMM|DDMMSS] Format of the label. "DD" for degrees, "DDMM" for degrees minutes, and "DDMMSS" for degrees, minutes, seconds. The default is decimal display of whatever SRS you're rendering the GRID with. Brent Fraser GeoAnalytic Inc.

All, I got the GRID object to work and display in this interface: http://gis.ci.stpaul.mn.us/gis/gismo_public/html/?mapbook=/datasets/CONFIGS/SAINT_PAUL/PUBLIC_WORKS/MAPBOOKS/TS/gismo3_test_public.xml I still need to know more info about the function though, is FORMATOPTION the only method of changing the labeling? I would like to get rid of the Scientific notaion that it uses by default and use LAT/LON instead. Specifically I'm trying to get it to label using the US National Grid. Anyone had any experience with this? I have a couple of other experimental layers in the interface referenced above that are sourced with Polygons,and Polyline SHP files as well as via the MapServer Grid Object. Im shooting for the GRID labeling method as the preferred output at this point. Thanks for any pointers. bobb ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------- > _______________________________________________ > mapserver-users mailing list > mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users > _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
